Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 2023

WHAT'S NEW

We're now part of Endeavor, a global leader in sports, fashion, events, media, and talent representation.
We've added more detail about what data we collect, how we use your data, and who we share it with.

This Privacy Policy explains how information about you is collected, used and disclosed by Barrett-Jackson. This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect when you use our websites, blogs, mobile apps and other online services, including any Wi-Fi service we make available at our events or when you otherwise interact with us, including when you register for or attend one of our events or auctions, visit our websites, purchase merchandise or products from us, transact business at our Showroom or at an auction, or when you contact us for customer support (collectively, "Services"). We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of the policy and, in some cases, we may provide you with additional notice (such as adding a statement to our homepage or sending you an email). For information about the choices we provide in connection with our information practices, please see the "Your Choices" section below.

If you are a California resident, please see "Information for California Consumers" below.

WHO WE ARE

We are Barrett-Jackson Holdings, LLC ("Barrett-Jackson" or "we"), which includes "Barrett-Jackson Auction Co., LLC", "Barrett-Jackson Media", "Barrett-Jackson Showroom", "Collector Car Network", "AutoHunter", and "ClassicCars.com". We are also part of Endeavor and may share data with its affiliated entities ("Endeavor").

Like any company, we use a variety of third-party businesses and partners to market and provide our Services to you. Some of those companies are part of Endeavor and some are third parties that we partner with or support our operations so we can provide the best experience to you.

COLLECTION OF INFORMATION

  • Information You Provide to Us

    We collect information you provide directly to us. For example, we collect information when you register to become a bidder, request to or consign a vehicle, create an online account, register to access our Wi-Fi service, use our site navigation app, make a purchase, participate in a contest, promotion or other event, submit a registration or application form, request customer support or otherwise communicate with us. The types of information we may collect include your name, email address, phone number, physical address, payment method information, driver's license information and any other information you choose to provide.

  • Blog Posts

    To use certain features of the blog, such as posting a comment or subscribing to email updates, you must complete a form in which you provide us with your contact information (such as your name and email address). We use this information to contact you about the Services in which you have expressed interest.

  • Surveys and Contests

    From time to time we may offer you the opportunity to participate in contests, sweepstakes, or surveys. If you participate, we may request certain personally identifiable information from you. Participation in these surveys, sweepstakes, or contests is completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and address) and demographic information (such as your age and postal code).

    We use this information to gather feedback about our sites' features, notify contest winners, and/or to send participants an email newsletter.

    We may use a third-party service provider to conduct these surveys or contests; any such company will be prohibited from using our users' personal information for any other purpose.

  • Social Sharing and "Send to a Friend"

    In an effort to foster community and conversation, we provide convenient links to major social networks throughout our sites. Each social network has its own privacy policy, which may differ significantly from ours. Your use of any social network is subject to its privacy policy.

    If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend about our sites or post on a blog, we will ask you for your friend's name and email address. We will send your friend a one-time email inviting him or her to view a vehicle listing or visit the site. We store this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email and for tracking the success of our referral programs.

    Your friend may contact us using our feedback page to request that we remove this information from our database.

  • Information We Collect Automatically When You Use the Services

    When you use our Services, we automatically collect information about you, including:

    • Usage Information: We collect information about your use of our online Services, including which features you interact with, purchases you make, referring/exit pages, clickstream data, and similar usage information.
    • Wi-Fi Service Information: When you access our Wi-Fi service at one of our events, we may collect information about your use of that service, including URLs you access, search terms, information about files you access, and information about the senders and recipients of unencrypted communications you send and receive. We will only use this information to investigate actual or potential violations of our user agreements or to protect the rights, property and safety of Barrett-Jackson or others.
    • Device Information: We collect information about the device you use to access our Services, including hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers (such as MAC address), and mobile network information.
    • Log Information: We collect server logs in connection with your use of our Services, which include IP address, Internet Service Provider (ISP), the specific action taken through our Services, the date and time of the action, operating system, and web browser type and language.
    • Event Location Information: When you attend one of our events, we may use the MAC address of your device and your proximity to our Wi-Fi access points, to determine your device's location. Please see "Your Choices" below for more information.
    • RFID or NFC Tag Information: The credentials we provide our VIPs, bidders, consignors, and other select customers or attendees may contain Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) or Near Field Communication (NFC) tags. These tags are small radio chips that can be read by scanners at our events. Each tag contains a unique code that is associated with each person using the credential, allowing us to facilitate entry into restricted areas and provide certain benefits or services to those individuals.
    • Information Collected by Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies:
      • Cookies, which are small files that are sent to your computer or mobile device when you visit a website, and are used to recognize your browser and track your usage each time you visit;
      • Mobile device identifiers, which are unique identifiers established by your mobile device operating system that we collect from our mobile apps. These identifiers are used for similar purposes as cookies;
      • Local storage, which stores data locally in your browser or device, including user preferences; and
      • Pixel tags, which are small blocks of code often used in connection with cookies. Pixel tags (or web beacons) may be placed on our websites and emails and allow us to track website usage and determine when emails have been opened and acted upon.

  • Information We Collect From Other Sources

    We may also obtain information from other sources. For instance, we may receive information about you from corporate sponsors or partners that attend or participate in the events and from third parties that sell tickets to our events. Additionally, if you link your Barrett-Jackson account with an account you have with a social media service (such as Facebook), we will have access to certain information from that service, such as your name, profile image, and other account information, in accordance with the authorization procedures established by that service.

USE OF INFORMATION

We may combine the information we collect about you and use this information for various purposes, including to:

  • Provide and improve our events, products and Services;
  • Send you technical notices and support and administrative messages;
  • Communicate with you about products, services, promotions, events and other news and information we think will be of interest to you;
  • Personalize our Services and events, including by providing content, advertisements or features we think will be of interest to you;
  • Facilitate contests and promotions and process and deliver prizes;
  • Monitor and analyze trends and usage in connection with our Services and events;
  • Detect and prevent fraudulent transactions and other illegal activities and protect the rights and property of Barrett-Jackson and others; and

SHARING OF INFORMATION

We may share information about you as follows:

  • We may share your information with Endeavor entities, select partners, or sponsors that may use this information to send you marketing they think will be of interest to you, including any sponsor identified on the page you use to register to access our Wi-Fi service;
  • With service providers who access the information in connection with the services they perform for us;
  • In response to a request for information if we believe disclosure is in accordance with, or required by, any applicable law, regulation or legal process;
  • If we believe your actions are inconsistent with our user agreements or policies, or to protect the rights, property and safety of Barrett-Jackson or others;
  • In connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing or acquisition of all or a portion of our business by another company;
  • If you are a consignor/seller or winning bidder/buyer of a vehicle at one of our auctions or events, your contact information will be shared with the other party to the transaction; and
  • With your consent or at your direction.

We may also share aggregated or de-identified information with third parties, which cannot reasonably be used by those third parties to identify you

Advertising and Analytics Services Provided by Others

We allow others to provide analytics services and serve advertisements on our behalf across the Internet and in mobile apps. These entities may use cookies, web beacons, device identifiers and other technologies to collect information about your use of our websites and mobile apps and other websites and apps, including your IP address, web browser, mobile network information, pages viewed, time spent on pages or in apps, links clicked and conversion information. This information may be used by Barrett-Jackson, Endeavor, partners and sponsors, to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content, deliver advertising and content targeted to your interests on our websites and mobile apps and other websites and apps, and better understand your online activity. For more information about interest-based ads, or to learn how you may be able to opt out of having your web browsing information used for behavioral advertising purposes, please visit https://www.aboutads.info/choices. Your mobile device may also include a feature that allows you to opt out of having certain information collected through apps used for behavioral advertising purposes. Please review the settings of your mobile device for more information.

YOUR CHOICES

Account Information You may update the online account information you provide to us by logging into your online account.

Cookies Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove or reject browser cookies. Please note that if you choose to remove or reject cookies, this could affect the availability and functionality of our websites.

Promotional Communications You may opt out of receiving promotional emails from us by following the instructions in those emails. If you opt out, we may still send you non-promotional emails, such as those about your account or our ongoing business relations.

Event Location Information Please contact us at: legal@barrett-jackson.com if you want to opt out of our collection of location information when you attend an event. We will need you to provide us with your device MAC address to facilitate this opt out. This opt out will only work for each unique MAC address, so you will need to opt out for each device you bring to an event. And any device that periodically resets its MAC address will be treated as a new device that requires a new opt-out. Keep in mind, you can also turn off all Wi-Fi and Bluetooth signals to avoid collection of this information.

RFID or NFC Tags If you are attending one of our events and are provided a credential for access to restricted areas at the event, you may request to receive a credential that does not contain a RFID or NFC tag. Please submit your request to us prior to attending the event through the information listed in the "Contact Us" section below.

Do Not Track Some web browsers may transmit "do-not-track" signals to the websites with which the user communicates. Because of differences in how web browsers incorporate and activate this feature, it is not always clear whether you intend for these signals to be transmitted, or whether you even are aware of them. Because there currently is no industry standard concerning what, if anything, websites should do when they receive such signals, we currently do not take action in response to these signals.

CHILDREN

We do not knowingly collect information from children who are under 13 years old. If you are a parent or guardian of a child who is 13-16 years old and using our Services, please send us an email at legal@barrett-jackson.comto opt in to the use of your personal information or request deletion of any personal information we may have collected about the child. If you are a parent or guardian of a child who is under 13 years old and using our Services, please contact us to arrange for deletion of any personal information we may have collected about the child.

STORAGE AND RETENTION OF INFORMATION

The length of time we retain personal information collected from you depends on a variety of factors, including the following:

  • Whether you have consented to us maintaining and using it;
  • Whether and to what extent you have restricted or limited the use in some fashion pursuant to your particular consumer rights;
  • Whether and to what extent the information is still relevant to our legitimate business purposes within the use of information section above; and
  • We do not keep or use personal information that does not serve our legitimate business purpose and comply with this Privacy Policy.
  • We will also take steps to ensure that the information we collect is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy, and we have put in place technical and organizational procedures designed to safeguard the information we collect.
  • Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect the information we collect, we cannot guarantee its security.
